Do you like when your partner makes dirty jokes?

[Jean-Marie_Céline]

I enjoy it when we are alone, but when we are with her girl friends and they all start laughing it's actually embarassing. I know that sometimes they do it because they like to mess with me a bit.
What about you?

I know they do it to tease and mess with me in a friendly way, like when they all start screaming my name or do the hola.

I am too serious of a person to really enjoy that type of jokes.

Being around guys my age in school, I hear practically nothing but dirty jokes and I am aware that they tell them to check on girls' reactions.

I must admit that a lot of them are outright demeaning and insulting if not humiliating. I avoid to be with those guys because it puts me in an uncomfortable situation.

Not being in a relation myself, I can only judge for what I hear around me but I don't think that my opinion would be different if I was in a group of people where my partner makes that type of jokes. As a matter of fact, I would feel even worse because I personally don't find them appropriate in most situations and I would know that friends also check on my reactions to those jokes.

[Jean-Marie_Céline]

You have excellent points as always.
I personally don't like them when they are demeaning and vulgar, and even then I prefer them to be in intimacy just with my fiancée.
When her girl friends all start making those jokes and lewd remarks, it really embarrasses me.

[SueShe]

I can imagine what kind of feeling that is when you know that those jokes could actually concern you indirectly.

In many instances, those jokes are directed at one or the other gender and unfortunately, people tend to put every single individual of that gender into the same basket even when there are lot of exceptions.

[Jean-Marie_Céline]

Exactly.
There's one of her friends that once she gets started, is more vulgar than a sailor.
Last time she went on a tirade about how men are worth only for the things between their legs and went into too much details about the things she'd do to a guy she fancies.
My fiancée was embarassed by her.

[SueShe]

And that is exactly the breeding ground for a potential relation conflict when the one or the other feels offended by the partner's friend (s) behavior and makes remarks that again are perhaps perceived as attacks against his/her close friend (s).

[Jean-Marie_Céline]

I don't make any comments about her, but my fiancée is already wary with her.
The friend is not a bad person, but she really goes overboard and can a bit insensitive at times.

[SueShe]

I noticed that people that tend to tell dirty jokes can also be those that would not tell them normally when sober but under the influence will loosen enough to risk one or two but will regret telling them once sober again. Then you have those that have no compunction to tell them, regardless in which state they are.

[SueShe]

Thanks for this clean MHO. Makes my day. Have a great day yourself :-)

[moonpie89]

I enjoy it

[Obtuse]

To an extent and in my case it's not so important whether it's public or private but I actually don't like the most over-the-top forms of dirty talk. It's not embarrassing to me and I don't think I'm prudish but at some threshold, it makes me question taste. That threshold is pretty high in my case though. I can tolerate and even enjoy quite a bit of silliness. And if someone crosses the threshold it's not like I'm offended or embarrassed, but I start losing interest. They've lost my engagement in the conversation. As crass as I can be, there's still some threshold there where even I can find certain things to be in "poor taste".

[Obtuse]

I don't have this issue whatsoever though with my wife. She's a super vanilla romantic type, more likely to turn a bit red at a sexual joke while laughing (she's a good sport still, not easily offended but maybe a bit easy to embarrass) instead of making one herself. If she tries to make one, chances are that it will be incredibly tame.

I enjoy irreverent and off color jokes. People with a good sense of humor are fun. I really appreciate a partner with a dirty sense of humor.
In reading your comment, though, I was reminded how annoying it can be to be around a bunch of giggly girls.

[JustSomeGuy11]

Hell yes, sexual innuendos and dirty jokes all the way... Just not in public or around family. With friends it depends on how close they are and how personal the jokes are.

[MuffinBoi]

Well I mean, it's funny when in group settings in a friendly way. My favourite part is when one of us takes what the other said out of context.

However in terms of just my hypothetical partner and I, then yeah, who doesn't like a good sense of humour from a partner one to one with a little bit of innuendo mixed in?

[beldath]

Just from the few comments I've seen, girls no, guys yes. There seem to be a few on the opposite side of the argument on both sides.
I love to tell dirty jokes, and I want my female interest to as well, especially if it leads to doing to some or most. of the things we joke about.

[StephenCF]

Yes, but the best partners are those who aren’t afraid to tell offensive, politically incorrect jokes because then you know they don’t bow down to liberal snowflakes (like too many people do nowadays) 😍❤️

[Avicenna]

I am the same way- it's great when she and I are alone (especially double entendre jokes), but not when other people are there with us.

[Snakeyes7]

Absolutely! I prefer a partner who isn’t a stick in the mud all day. Dark humor is even better tbh.

[JamesBlackDragon]

Yes for me sometimes for Her if it's aimed at someone she thinks likes me it makes her jealous

[Tommy2017]

Those are the only kinds of jokes I know how to make.
Just fire back a joke when her friends are around that'll probably make her super uncomfortable.
Next time she won't do it again when her friends are around.

[Antelope]

Agreed. Honestly, public displays of affection are a big no-no for me.

[Axel624]

If my girlfriend and I don't make dirty jokes it just wouldn't work

[JermalTheBlackDog]

Yep. Because, it's my best chance to troll there ass just to see how they like it

[Jjpayne]

I would, it's kinda flirty and fun :)

[elite665]

I like it even when it gets a little embarrassing

[Massageman]

She doesn't so, I really have no way of knowing.

[LuWe22]

No. I don't like that at all.

[Tim-loves-it]

Id love it if she did

[VenusSweets]

Depends on the joke

[siskar]

It depends on my mood

[kajoharudo12]

It depends on whether or not the joke was funny.

[Phoenix98]

Lol I'm fine with it.
